More Fully Than Any Other Time

More fully than any other time
God's plan of happiness has been shown
Such that any single person can find
The greatest blessings to be known

Through the Lord's priesthood keys
The way has now been opened
For the living and deceased
To work for and obtain sacred tokens...

Today, in love, God affirms
His highest standards unto Him
As no respecter of persons
He commands we learn His laws and then do them

In the doctrines and principles
Many are finding a sure anchor
With opportunities for temples
Sanctifying them through the Savior

Blessings of the Gospel
Available to All
Elder Joseph W. Sitati
Ensign, November 2009, 103

Elder Sitati noted how the Savior after His resurrection signaled that the time had come for the gospel to be taken to the gentiles.

"He had revealed that the gentile nations would be visited and invited one after the other. … The blessings would be the same irrespective of the order of the invitation."

Through the Prophet Joseph Smith, "the Lord revealed that the determining criteria for the order in which the gentile nations are invited includes the capacity to spiritually and temporally nourish the kingdom of God as it is established on the earth for the last time," he said.

"I have seen the good fruit of the gospel blossom in my home continent of Africa," Elder Sitati continued. "After just 30 years, there are 300,000 saints. … A new celestial culture is developing in homes. … Many are able to break free from the shackles of traditions that restrict the exercise of their agency."
